Exit Number Nine Written by Glen Burtnik Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik The place I'm from is on the Raritan River South of Manhattan maybe 40 miles. The girls look good and they can really deliver. The boys know how to dress and they all got style. That trip to California really made up my mind. I turned around and headed home to exit number nine. The working girls come out to turn the college boys on. The way they dance, I swear they're working overtime. One man's medicine's another's poison. When Sissy's at the bar, I call it party time. French Street's buzzzin', the freaks keep comin' The kids are really something down on exit number nine. Handy Andy made his high school honors, Now he makes his living from his work on cars. Auto detail for a hundred dollars, And every night he blows it at the local bars. He came to town for knowledge but he dropped out of college, Now he's buffing polish down on exit number nine. Down at Lee's and Tony'...

Riding the Avenue Written by Lenny Kaye Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik I remember it like I was almost there. It happened at the Middlesex County Fair. She had big brown eyes that were rimmed in black. I though I recognized them from the school bus back. And all I ever wanna do Is riding on the avenue. We got a lot of living still to do Riding the avenue. Taking a turn on Lynnwood Place A Continental rolled in and out of a space, Past Linda's house, tonight's the night To see who's waiting at the Constable light. And all I ever wanna do Is riding on the avenue. We got a lot of living still to do Riding the avenue. Aginglue (?)  is starring at the Rivalee  (?)

Losing Your Hair Written by Glen Burtnik Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik Well, Daddy's been concerned about his physical condition. It's got him speculating on his personal nutrition. It's caused his self-esteem to hit an all time low And he inquires about what's ailing him everywhere he goes. He calls in on the talk show and he asked his closest friends. He went to see the doctor, this is what he said: "Daddy, you're losing your hair, You're only losing your hair. There's a great big part getting wider by the year. Well, you can fiddle with the middle to make up for what ain't there, But Daddy, Daddy, you're losing your hair." Daddy got a letter in the U.S. mail 'Bout a magic potion lotion guaranteed to grow hair. Now he didn't hesitate, he sent his money in, The he paced the floor until the day a package came for him. He followed the directions and he rubbed some in on top, And day and night he rubbed so hard till what was left fell o...

Easton Avenue Fever Dream (Only a Man in a Dream) Written by Glen Burtnik Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik When the sunset burned out And the moon rose on the birth of the night, Then the fireflies came out With the vampires, setting their sights On the bonfire's black light Where the water caresses the sand. There were prayers and last rites. There was power in the palm of my hand. So I slew my demons And I knew I, I was summoned again To this dreamland station, Called to battle When I'm only a man in a dream.

When Kathy Spoke Written by Glen Burtnik Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik Well, my jaw dropped open When the girl walked by, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Pretty as a picture, You can imagine my surprise, Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. When she walked in and looked my way And said the things she had to say In a little voice that came from outer space, Cause when Kathy spoke, A smile came to my face. She was a natural beauty, A schoolboy's dream, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Curved like a statue, Like a picture in a magazine, Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. There were times my eyes were on the ground Cause I felt somehow I'd been let down And I couldn't see, but then I'd hear that sound, And when Kathy spoke, She turned my head around. Some say it was the booze. Some say it was the drugs. Some say it was a pimp to blame, Some say it was punks. I say sometimes the devil Cannot be stopped, And although the girl was beautiful, The end was not. Ain't no doubt about it, She had the look in her eye, Yeah, yeah, yeah...
